    FAQ

    My phone does not have magnetic sensor -
    This app analyse magnetic activity based on readings from magnetic sensor of your android device. If this sensor is not available, you can only use infrared detector feature. Other way is you can try on some other device having magnetic sensor.

    App beeps near metal or electronics -
    This app is not designed to detect metals. Metals are good conductor for electricity so they have electromagnetism but it is very weak and app is designed to ignore it.
    But sometimes, some type of metals depending on their length, material, temperature may exhibit same magnetic activity as that of camera. In that case app may beep. If so always look for lens on the suspect if app beeps.

    What do I do if it beeps near metal -
    Check if there is any lens on the suspect. If not, then you are secure. if you find lens like object, then there should be hidden camera.

    What is the use of this app, if I have to detect manually
    App analyses magnetic activity and warn you if it find magnetic activity similar to camera.
    So if app beeps, check for lens.
    App can not see if suspect is having lens on it but your eyes can see it likewise you can not see its magnetic/ electromagnetic activity but the app can analyze ! App will help you many times and may also fail sometimes and there it needs your intervention.

    Infrared detector is just a fancy green tool of normal camera. Normal camera can also detect infrared
    You are partially-correct. Along with this, infrared detector have luminescence effect to glow white light. If you feel better with normal camera, go for it. We never claimed something false. But please give credit to the app if you never knew IR camera can be detected using digicam. And off course, its a quick scanning feature within the app.

    App does not open Infrared camera detector. It shows not responding
    Please kill all other camera apps that are running in background.

Some features won't work on this "Verizon Total."....my new b160V, doesn't come with a built in censor, (magnetic),..but, any of the previous smartphones from Verizon Wireless, or "The other guys),....this app works circles around others. Real talk! Thanks hidden camera detected!

Tried this app after someone suggested they put a hidden camera on my house. Pointed this app at, in front of, and also next to my own camera and it gave zero indications of any sort of recording devices.

This app used to work 4 the purposes that I needed, but now it's complete trash! The infrared filters don't change like they used to...I'm guessing either the developers got lazy/greedy/both, the feds didn't like the functions & infiltrated the coding/volatile metadata, Or a combination of everything! WAKE UP! KNOW YOUR ENEMY! THE GOVERNMENT IS LYING TO YOU... EVERYTHING IS A FACADE... FREEDOM IS AN ILLUSION & YOU'RE ALL OBLIVIOUS SHEEPLE! TAKE THE POWER BACK!
